Jessica Alba Takes on TMZ

This week, the gorgeous actress is taking her fight to celebrity gossip website, TMZ.

Following a red carpet interview in which Alba advised America to "Be Sweden... be neutral" in various foreign affairs, the mean-spirited folks at TMZ posted the video and mocked the star's ignorance for mistaking Switzerland for Sweden.

In her latest MySpace blog, Alba stands up for her historical knowledge. She writes:

Last week, some really classy sites (i.e.TMZ) insinuated I was dumb by claiming Sweden was a neutral country. I appreciate the fact that gossip sites are inundated with intelligent reporting, but seriously people...it's so sad to me that you think the only neutral country during WWII was Switzerland. Check out: [this Wikipedia link] if you want to see what I was referring to. I appreciate the name calling and the accurate reporting. Keep it up!!

TMZ, insecure as it is, just had to fire back at Alba, posting the following earlier today:

We apologize for not considering the political climate of the world in 1942 when we suggested she may have meant, "Be Switzerland" -- a country that is currently neutral. Our sincerest apologies.

For the record: this star could refer to Afghanistan as "neutral" and we'd still tell the world how breathtaking Jessica Alba nude pics are. Just sayin.
